It creates the convolution matrix using an equation. I would think that it would simply plug in the variables for each convolution matrix value it's looking for, but what it is actually doing is taking 50 numbers and plugs those into the equation, then averages them. >> >> Just to repeat, this is in the part that creates the convolution matrix, not the part that uses the convolution matrix to generate pixel values.

Now I'm interested. Where can I look in the code for this? They really do this every time with the same results instead of just having an array of the numbers so generated?
